About the Books
Empire’s Legacy series by Marian L Thorpe

Set in a world reminiscent of early-medieval Europe, Empire’s Legacy is a multi-generational saga  of choices, betrayals, intrigue, and love, where some battles of power and politics are won with swords – and some with words.

Empire’s Daughter 

An Emperor's request, a lover's refusal - and a young woman who must choose between them.

Set in a coastal village bound by centuries-old traditions, Empire’s Daughter tells the powerful story of Lena: a young woman content in her life, yet restless for something more. When an imperial messenger arrives with a shocking request -- that the women of Tirvan learn to fight -- Lena’s world is shattered.

Suddenly, long-standing gender roles are upended. As the village teeters on the edge of chaos, Lena is thrust into a leadership role she never asked for. Without her partner Maya at her side, and war on the horizon, Lena must confront not only the enemy but the deeply rooted beliefs of her own people.

What begins as a duty becomes a journey of identity, sacrifice, and transformation. As traditions break and battlelines form, can Lena forge a future where women shape the Empire, not just defend it?

the series:

Empire’s Hostage: A task Lena cannot refuse, a land that holds secrets – and a man she doesn’t know if she can trust.

Empire’s Exile: A reprieve from death, a city of legend, and a gamble to save everything—and everyone—Lena loves.

Empress & Soldier: A boy of the nighttime streets, a girl of libraries and learning – and the man who unites them.

OraiĆ”phon: A dying man, a conceded land – and a musician who tries to save both.

Empire’s Reckoning: A daughter’s question, a hidden story – and a bard who weaves the two together. 

Empire’s Heir:  An Empress’s summons, a palace of intrigue – and a daughter who must decide what she truly loves.

Empire’s Passing:  A promise to be kept, a torch to be passed – and a brother and sister who must lead their country into the future.


Author Bio:

After two careers as a research scientist and an educator, I decided it was time to do what I'd always really wanted, and be a writer. As well as my novels, I've published short stories and poetry. My life-long interest in Roman and post-Roman European history provided the inspiration for my books, while my other interests in landscape archaeology and birding provide background. I live in Canada for about ¾ of the year, and England for the rest.
